Thanks to the Mandriva Xfce volunteer development team, a community Xfce One edition of Mandriva Linux 2009 is now available for download from all official Mandriva mirrors. A list of download locations can be found on the Wiki page. This release gives you all the benefits of Mandriva Linux 2009 along with a fast and stable Xfce desktop.

"I've said this before, and I'm saying it again now - mandriva might actually make a dent in the ubuntu juggernaut if they simply made it easier to figure WTF to install if you really want "mandriva." They have too many options with a not-at-all-obvious tiering structure, including their pay-to-play stuff. In one word: simplify."

If you could please join the forums and post that in the threads where people keep bugging me to put even MORE editions on the download page, that would be much appreciated. =)
